So we dance around and around
Stomp the magic underground
I don’t want to hold it
I don’t want to run away
Think and overcome it
Throw it to a further day
Diamonds in the eyelids
Shine and always seem to say
I am not the one who made you look into my eyes
So we dance around and around
Stomp the magic underground
Thinking on a bright day
Maybe there’s a cloud above
Never know the right way
Wonder what I’m thinking of
Sitting in the alley
Flower petals start to bud
Look a little closer
All of them are spitting blood
I am not the one who wanted you to be alive
Have it your way
Let me stay enchanted
Like the old days
Act like I don’t know
So we dance around and around
Stomp the magic underground

Killing Your Parents
04:04
|

Don’t you go killing your parents on me now
Coz I just might go to bed without you
Don’t you go killing your parents on me now
Coz I won’t know what to do if you do
If you ran out on the street, naked as can be
That probably wouldn’t be the best news I heard that day
If you took the kitchen knives and stuck them in my eyes
I’d sit there and just bleed the pain away
Don’t you go killing your parents on me now
Coz I just might go to bed without you
Don’t you go killing your parents on me now
Coz I won’t know what to do if you do
I thought I saw you out, foaming from the mouth
But that was probably someone I don’t know
I heard it from a friend, you shot your mother dead
And still I didn’t fall asleep alone
You are my love and I support the choices you make
No matter what your twisted lips might say

Baby in the Water

Baby in the water
Tell me how it feels
When you’re about to slaughter a family of eels
Do you have the whole world in your hands?
Baby in the water
Don’t you think you know
That you could have a daughter
Or turn the rain to snow?
I don’t think that you understand
That you have the whole world in your hands
You’re a rebel in the sea
’Til you wash up on the beach
Or you could stand there doodling on your legs
While we find a new way to be seen
Baby in the water
I’d like to make a trade
I’ll let you into heaven
If you would let me wade
Let the water bring me to birth
You’re a rebel in the sea
’Til you wash up on the beach
Or you could stand there doodling on your legs
While we find a new way to be seen
Baby in the water
It’s squalor in the stew
And if I’m being honest
I wish that I was you
You can go wherever you like
No one cares if nobody tries

Hot

Well, I was ridin’ out on the trail
Herdin’ cattle without fail
I’m dreamin’ ‘bout lyin’ down on my dirty cot
When walkin’ up outta the blue
Wearin’ high-heeled leather boots
I saw me a bright eyed girl
And she was hot
Hotter than a dog on the fourth of July
Hotter than a chicken when I’m makin’ it fry
Hotter than a piece of American pie
Boy, that girl was hot
She took me back to here place
With a smile on her face
She led to a shack out by the rocks
And right there in the hall
Was her brother standin’ tall
And wouldn’t you believe me?
He was hot
Hotter than a dog on the fourth of July
Hotter than a chicken when I’m makin’ it fry
Hotter than a piece of American pie
Boy, he sure was hot
Now everyone listen up
Coz I’m only gonna say it once
There’s somethin’ you can do that’ll mean a lot
Find somethin’ or someone
That you really truly love
Hold ‘em close and tell ‘em that they’re hot
Hotter than a dog on the fourth of July
Hotter than a chicken when I’m makin’ it fry
Hotter than a piece of American pie

Binky's Jaws
05:46
|

Binky says there’s no more love in the world
But I’ll show him all of the things that are worth living for
He loves the taste of human meat
And he wishes he was free
Binky says he wants to go to the rides
But I know they will not accept a creature of his size
It’s as if the gate was opened
To the fire whip that broke him
All at once the ice is cracking
And the legs are overlapping
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
I wish that they had time to eat
The clock would take my hand and guide me to his grave
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
And I will give them what they need
He’s free to make a bowl out of my grave
See the way the earth descends for his gut
He likes to roar, but knows that he should keep his mouth shut
There are screams inside his belly
That grew vocal cords for yelling
Never mind the eyes that lick at your flesh
There are dividers here to keep him feeling worthlessness
’Til you tempt the tiny prison
From his teeth the yelp has risen
All at once the ice is breaking
And your leg is overtaken
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
I wish that they had time to eat
The clock would take my hand and guide me to his grave
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
And I will give them what they need
He’s free to make a bowl out of my grave and I must say
Binky’s jaws look so nice
Binky’s jaws will suffice
I hope that everybody else is on my side
Oh no
Please just let him go
Oh no
Please
Though nobody knows the meaning
You can see the gummies gleaming
They have words that have been hiding
But I found the way inside
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
I wish that they had time to eat
The clock would take my hand and guide me to his grave
Binky’s jaws look so nice to me
And I will give them what they need
He’s free to make a bowl out of my grave and I must say that
Binky’s jaws look so nice
Binky’s jaws will suffice
I am the king of being thanked for ruling all of your minds
Binky’s jaws look so nice
Binky’s jaws will suffice
I know that everybody else is on my side

(Not Alive) One You Like
05:23

Crystal Clear Ignoration Is Killing Me
Stuff it full of colored candy bars
They ought to make these pointy things more parent-proof
I’m forgetting who my skin cells really are
Take me to the spring
Full of screens showing filthy things
You can see my baby pictures on the wall and they can sing
I’m not alive
I want to be the one you like
I haven’t seen you since before the happy days
I guess you saw me switch on the TV
Have a glass of sweat that’s more familiar
I wrang every drop out of the sheets
You forgot your weird
But I brought my queer
The people in the home say they’re the same
Never let it go
Unless somebody knows
That what you’re always holding is a blade
They should’ve sang
I’m not alive
I want to be the one you like
What’s the deal when all you feel is stolen?
How could I believe your eyes are golden?
And where’s the steel that left our bodies broken?
Is it there
In your hair
Like a token?
I’m not alive
I want to be the one you like

Out by the highway, three pansies in a pocket
The tree trembles, tell the prison doors to lock it
And the eyes of God have finally been opened
Glue the shards back together till it was never broken
Sky man takes a bite of a cloud
Finally nobody is standing 5 or 7
The children came to join me and drift behind the present
I’m soft and hazy, I’m steaming from the kettle
Animals arrive, and their legs are filled with metal
Sky man takes a bite of a cloud
I’ll march behind you
While you’re following the leader
I’ll give you the knife
And it’ll cut you deeper
Push forward
Let it numb all of your nerves
Have heart
And administer the cure
Pins and needles
They swim to set you free
So pull forward
And bring it back to me
Foam mucus
The lord of living hard
So take highly
Until we’re all in charge
Terror on legs
Amoeba outline
It’s like everything I’ve never seen before
Floral patterns crushed by steaming boulders
Flaming Jesus behind the mountain
Habit ground space like hairy ancestors
And bow down to the king and queen of the hair pin
Neverland on wheels will bring us backwards
My lights are out
But I’m on fire
